Notes on Table 3:
A Local property tax rate for schools is $1.65 per $100 of assessed real property. Assessment is at full value. No significant change in assessed values expected.
B Twenty-three teachers from last year did not return to the system for this current year ( i.e., they left the system nearly two months ago, on June 30) due to either retirement or other reasons. Teachers’ salaries are paid over the course of 10 months (September 1 to June 30).
C New textbooks are needed to comply with extensive state-mandated curriculum changes.
